This blog is about living with chronic pain. I will offer advice about pain, ACDF, and other health topics as well. Makeup is something I love. I enjoy wearing it, shopping for it, and writing about it. I am using this blog to do reviews for various products as well.

Influenster #TLCVoxBox!

I'm a member of Influenster and was one of the lucky moms chosen to receive the #TLCVoxBox! I was super excited since this is the first box I have qualified for from them. I always check out their Twitter posts and knew that they send out great stuff.

This box was sent to the Moms of Influenster Nation as a way to give back some of the care we give to everyone else. Moms are known to do anything and everything for everyone else sometimes without taking giving themselves a little TLC as well. This box was a mix of practical things a mom needs to have on hand and a couple things just for mom.

Influenster #TLCVoxBox

Shell Fuel Rewards Network- Sign up for free at Shell stations or click here for more details on how you can save $ at the pump while earning rewards. I have not signed up for this because I usually use a gas station just down the road from my home. I may sign up to use this when I am out and about.

Breyers Gelato Indulgences- Gelato is a lot like ice cream, but typically has less fat. "Brewers Gelato Indulgences come with a unique trio of textures: creamy gelato, luscious sauce, and gourmet toppings." I have yet to try this because I have not been able to find it in the stores I use. I just found a store locator on there website here. I am definitely going to use it to find a store in my area and use the coupon I received to try out the Vanilla Caramel. Yummy!

Puffs to Go- I always carry tissue in my purse and car. My son has seasonal allergies that seem more like all year long allergies! Even on his good days he blows his nose often. I was happy to get a package of the Puffs to Go and immediately put it in my purse. Puffs are always soft and gentle on sensitive skin.

Neosporin Neo to Go- I already had one of these babies in my purse and now I have another for back up. These are "specially designed to give you infection protection, plus pain relief, anytime, anywhere." Kids are always getting cuts and scrapes and there is no way that mine will let me touch their boo-boos or put anything that stings on them. These are perfect because with one hand you can spray it on and it will reduce the pain and protect them from yucky germs!

Ivory Bar Soap- The original Ivory Bar Soap helps you to get clean without using perfumes or additives. Ivory is a brand that my family has used for as long as I can remember. I really like packaging on this bar. It's a really cute blue and white wrapper. I personally do not use bar soap anymore, but I did give this to my husband and he likes it.

Avon Anew Reversalist Express Wrinkle Smoother- I was most excited about this item in my box. It's "a finishing cream-to-powder skincare perfector in a portable compact, for application over moisturizer or makeup." Just pat a little over any type of wrinkle without rubbing it in to smooth its appearance. I tried this and had mixed feelings about it. It did seem to fill in some fine lines that I have on my forehead and near my eyes, but it didn't seem to last. I feel like I would need to carry this around with me and reapply it often. I do like the packaging that it comes in. It's a square compact that slides open. I was able to use the reflective outside as a mirror to apply it. The compact was a little bulky to carry in my purse though.

Complete Renewal Express

Avon also claims that this product "is formulated with Tri-Elastinex to enhance skin cells' ability to renew, regenerate and reconstruct itself." I have not been able to notice any of these results myself yet. Finally, this product costs $30 full price on Avon's website. In my opinion it did not provide enough positive results to justify spending that kind of money on it. I will update this product as I continue to use it here and there if my opinion of it changes.

That's everything from my #TLCVoxBox from Influenster. I do wish that it contained a couple more items that I could use for myself instead of my kiddos. I am grateful to Influenster and the brands listed above for allowing me to try and review their products. I hope that I will be chosen for more boxes in the future! You can sign up to be a part of the Influenster Nation by visiting their website at Influenster.com. Sorry, my link function stopped working on me. :-/

*I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

About Me

This is NOT a poor me blog, but feel free to send me positive vibes and some good luck would be great too!! Just a regular mom. I'm not a guru of any subject I write about. Just sharing my experiences. Herniated discs in my neck and subsequent surgery and chronic pain have changed my life forever. This blog is therapeutic for me. Maybe I can help someone sharing a similar situation.
